More than half of women in one way or another face the issue of caesarean section.
Pass the necessary tests
Usually a couple of weeks before the operation, the doctor asks the woman for a blood test. They, in turn, will give specialists an understanding of the level of hemoglobin in a pregnant woman. It is also important to tell your doctor if you are allergic to any medications or have any underlying chronic medical conditions. Do not ignore a visit to an anesthesiologist. It will help exclude diseases and drug allergies.
Discuss the date of the operation
After a thorough examination, your doctor will advise you on the best date for your birth. Usually caesarean is done at the 39th week of pregnancy. If your condition is uncomplicated, your doctor will choose the surgery closest to your natural due date. Next, you need to sign a permit for a caesarean section.
Prepare mentally for the operation
A couple of days before the operation, the doctor will bring you up to date and tell you more about all aspects of the operation. You will also not be allowed to eat or drink during contractions. First of all, you need to get a good night's sleep. Then you can shower at home before going to the hospital. Important: you don't have to shave your pubic hair. The nurse in the hospital will do this if necessary. If you are iron deficient, your doctor may prescribe an extra vitamin intake because you will lose a lot of blood during the operation.
